About:

Christine is a Registered Dietitian and Personal Trainer by trade, who loves incorporating her nutrition world into stories – ones that deal with real, everyday problems women face. Her seriesFix It or Get Outhelps us realize we are not alone, and there are solutions to the obstacles we face every day.

Her first bookCheating to Survive released in May of 2014, delves into the why’s and how’s of wives making the decision to cheat on their spouses. Told in a way that truly takes you behind the scenes of three co-workers, in different phases of their marriage, and the situations that lead them to their decisions. Will they find any happiness in their choices, or be destroyed by the consequences?

Her second book Every Five Years released in August of 2014, takes us on one woman’s journey as we discover what happens when you marry the wrong man. Pressure from family and friends, and our own lack of self-confidence, can lead anyone down this wrong path.

Her third book, The Bridges Before Us released February 2016, teaches us to love ourselves, embrace who we are, and never change for the sake of pleasing others.

“I got the feeling of “what shall I do with my life now” when I finished this series. I couldn’t pick up another book because these books made me wonder if I have everything figured out in my life or if I can learn something from them. These books are good for your soul. So obviously I can’t do anything other than give all three books top reviews. I wish I could give more because some 5 star books feels weak compared to this series” – Angelica Berglund (Books and Some More Books Reviewer).

Christine also has a popular website called Nutrition and Exercise Smoothie which helps real people achieve their healthy eating and weight loss goals. Ones that work full time. Have children and a home to juggle. The ones that have a busy social life, attend college or run a business. People that want to learn how to help themselves but need a little (or a lot) of motivation. She provides you with great ideas on how to eat healthy nutrient dense meals, gives you practical exercise tips to get you up and moving, plus motivation to keep you living an enjoyable life while having fun!

About the Author:

Christine Ardigo is a registered dietitian/personal trainer who writes Contemporary Fiction in her spare time. She is the author of Cheating to Survive – Women’s Fiction novel, Every Five Years – Contemporary Romance novel, and The Bridges Before Us – New Adult novel, all part of The Fix It or Get Out Series. When weight lifting, rock climbing, white-water rafting, and jumping out of airplanes wasn’t enough, she decided to fulfill a dream she had as a child: to write a book.

She’s lived in New York her entire life and couldn’t imagine living anywhere else. She has the beaches, the bay and the city all a half hour away. She’s built memories here with her husband, two quirky daughters, and a bunch of crazy friends, all whom she loves very much.

Can Cheating on Your Husband Bring Unimaginable Pleasure or Completely Destroy Your World? To her three daughters, Heather is a fun-loving, silly mom. Her co-workers at Norlyn Plains Hospital think she has it all, including a handsome lawyer husband. But when a flirtatious new doctor chooses Heather to spend his down time with, he reminds her of the man she regrettably gave up so many years before. Each interaction breathes new life into her and she gives in to the doctor’s seductions, threatening her fifteen year marriage. Her co-workers Victoria and Catherine, are stunned by her actions, but when they see the positive transformation in Heather, and question their own crumbling marriages, they wonder if she has the right idea. Can cheating on their husbands bring the three of them happiness? Or will they be destroyed by the consequences?

Praise for Cheating to Survive

“It uplifts you on so many levels it’s difficult to know where to start. I could relate to almost every single scenario in this book. Clearly when you think you are going through something alone there are many other women going through exactly the same difficulties and emotions. The author brought out the characterizations brilliantly. There were so many times I knew exactly how the ladies felt. I am sure that every woman in the world has experienced similar situations to a certain degree.” Jackie Williams, Author of Silence of Scandal

Do you believe in second chances? Third? Fourth? Destiny’s determined to keep offering another shot…if they’re brave enough to grab it. Heather, the quirky non-conformist, is the complete opposite of her conventional, yet highly sought after boyfriend, Lance. She doesn’t know it yet, but her perfect boyfriend isn’t perfect for her. When Nicolo, a vibrant new employee starts at her job, he ignites a fire inside her, and she finds herself second-guessing her boring future as a lawyer’s wife. Nicolo always questioned his purpose in this world, until Heather’s dynamic personality finds a way into his heart. She makes him believe he can conquer the world, while he gives her a glimpse at an adventurous future. Before they reveal their true feelings, a vindictive boss fires Nicolo, leaving Heather with no possibility of contacting him. Five years later, Lance, deeply engrossed in law school, has yet to propose. During a rare night out, fate reunites Heather with Nicolo and that old spark is still very much alive. Torn between losing him again and the emotions she can no longer suppress, they launch into a powerful love affair. Heather discovers passion and warmth, and knows she must leave Lance. With love this perfect, what tears them apart a second time? Fate continues to step in, as Heather and Nicolo cross paths every five years. Will they ever fulfill their destiny, or will insecurities keep them apart? Every Five Years is a witty, heartfelt story of true love and what happens when life keeps getting in the way.

Praise for Every Five Years

“I love the premise for this book. People and circumstances change over time, and the notion that this couple would meet and affect each others lives every five years had me turning the pages of this book fast and furiously. A clever and unique way to tell a love story, I was truly taken in by the author’s vision for this adorable couple.” Lynn Cooper, Author of The Plus Size Romance Series

Stifled by her narcissistic mother, twenty-four-year-old Samantha Hart is tired of putting her life on hold. Determined to find her own happiness, she volunteers within the community. Who’d ever guess her good deeds would land her in trouble? Frustrated and at a loss, Samantha decides a walk on the wild side might do her some good. Intrigued by the scandalous lifestyle of her dynamic coworker Cara, Samantha attempts to transform herself into Cara’s sinful image. But, as she finds her new path meaningless and hollow, she looks for someone with better judgment to steer her in the right direction, and it’s someone she least expects. Can Samantha trust a man who hates everything about her, or does he see beneath the bad girl façade? A romance like no other, The Bridges Before Us, teaches us to love ourselves, embrace who we are, and never change for the sake of pleasing others.

Praise for The Bridges Before Us

“That’s where Christine Ardigo’s talent in character development shines through; because even as Samantha makes mistakes, she is doing the work, giving us reason to cheer for her. The author keeps the story moving at a pace that made me want to keep turning the pages, to see if Samantha goes off the rails or flies right. The way Ms. Ardigo writes kept me engrossed in the story and invested in all of the characters’ lives. Another winner!” Rebecca Warner, Author of Moral Infidelity
